Hyposmetric Map
Source - http://wn.com/contiguous_united_states
This right here is a Hyposmetric Map of the United States of America.These kinds of map gives the viewer an good idea of the elevations throughout the world. As you can see most of the these maps like this one has a scale it uses to determine how much elevation is taking place. The colors range on each map is different but on this one its from green to white, green being the lowest and white meaning highest peaks. From this map its easy to tell the the east coast of the USA is mostly flat but on the other hand the west seems to be very rocking on reason being the Rocky Mountains the runs through there and some of Canada.
